Customers will be able to make GBP and EUR payments and use cards. The e-money service launch follows a survey in which 65% of entrepreneurs said they would rate their current account provider 3/5 or less. When it comes to customer service, a majority of 65% rated their account provider as “average” or worse.
By giving SMEs and individuals access to the new e-money service, Greengage seeks to appropriately support each account holder through traditional and digital funding sources, as well as growing a broader web3 offering that will incorporate in-built API connections to other SaaS products, including embedded finance.
Greengage CEO Sean Kiernan said: “We’re delighted to launch our core e-money account service, which provides a compelling proposition for innovative companies who struggle to find accounts or appropriate support from traditional banking services
“Greengage’s goal is to be the best-in-class consistently. We have exciting plans to add more advanced technology solutions for entrepreneurs and SMEs of all stripes and offer additional service innovation under a full banking licence in the coming years”, Kiernan added.
Greengage is a provider of digital merchant services, offering wholesale, business-to-business lending against crypto asset exchange tokens. In April 2022, the company acquired Silver Lined Solutions, a Salesforce consultancy company.
Simon Jennings, executive director of the UK Cryptoasset Business Council, welcomed the new e-money service announced by Greengage.
